This facility is nearby and in a beautiful building. But I found the entire staff, from lobby security to patient care, to be extremely cold and dismissive. It seems they all hated their jobs. It did not leave one with a good feeling.

My experiences here gave me a very poor perception of healthcare. I came here seeking professional medical guidance following a setback in rehab following a surgery earlier this year, for a labrum repair. It took several 5 minute visits to Dr. Jaworski for her to finally prescribe an MRI. Prior to which she basically advised me to ignore the pain I was feeling and continue with the standard physical therapy, program which was yielding no progress. She even told me to do my normal upper body fitness routine at varying % of strengths when I could even do a push up without causing pain. Following the MRI and based on Dr. Jaworski’s guidance, I saw a surgeon named Dr. Mark Bowen (5 minute visit) who advised that I just stretch (which he advised could take up to 5 months! I’ve had the surgery 7 months ago at this point) until I got my range of motion back, prior to resuming the strengthening. I followed Dr. Bowen’s advice for a month skeptically before realizing that if I’m going to feel the same pain, I might as well do a little strengthening. I decide to focus on the rear part of the shoulder where my acupuncturist (not either doctor who saw the MRI) said I had weakness. I almost immediately saw the results I was looking for.

Watch out!!! Physicians in this facility ARE NOT your doctors. They must be hired for insurance companies which is the only thing they care about.

Very thankful for Dr Birmingham for diagnosing and taking care of a missed fracture from my sons original ER visit at a different hospital. We live out of town and had to get a courier to pick up our images and get them to where they needed to go. I WANT TO GIVE A HUGE THANK YOU to a handful of employees that answered my calls today and helped me get it all set up…THANK YOU Trina, Lawrence & Fritz who were the ones who were willing to give the extra help and to Valerie in X-ray…you all are much appreciated!
